In
his speech yesterday endorsing Hillary Clinton as the Democratic Presidential
candidate, Bernie included a crucial phrase:

"when the
roll call at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia is announced it
will show that we won almost 1,900 delegates."

L eslie Lash White"-Bernie Sanders: Advice and Strategies on HOW TO WIN Yes, he had to
"endorse" but he did not concede - he WILL demand a roll call of his
delegates at the convention. That's not what someone who's conceding does.

She
said that Bernie held a conference call with his pledged delegates after his
speech, to instruct them to vote for him when the roll is called. In contrast, Hillary suspended the roll call
vote at the 2008 convention, and conceded her delegates to Obama.

On
the same facebook page, Alex Klenski explains that "according to DNC rules, a candidate with an active campaign is not
allowed to deny an endorsement of another campaign. Doing so would result in forfeiture of said
candidate's superdelegate status, and the loss of access to the convention
floor stage. Bernie's just playing their game."

It's
worth noting that Sanders was the roll call amendment king while serving in the
House of Representatives from 1995 to 2007, passing more roll call amendments
in a hostile Republican Congress than any other representative. He is a consummate strategist.
